I found a match where a Kazan would infinitely spam his emotes, preventing me and my friends from figuring out what stance he would be. Pretty much costing us the match. Here's a video on how it's being done in Practice and a snippet of how the player abused the emote to ensure that we can't even tell what stance Kazan would be in.

This is insane

Emotes should just Be disabled during gameplay

Can poses be muted? Only emoticons can be muted afaik.
The emotes here are referibg to delighted and disappointed pose. I’m not sure those can be disabled.

I have tried during the match and it does not disable it.

Kazan one tricks are not allowed here

Not when we're taking into account that you'd be focusing many many things.

During a match, you just don't focus on one striker

I would say not really. Considering that this character focuses around identifying what stance he is in, not being able to know what stance he is in is bad.

I think to fix this, there needs to be a visual indicator showing which stance kazan is in besides seeing whether his umbrella is either open or closed. I’m thinking of something akin like zentaro’s red bar; some kind of visual indicator for other players to see so this won’t be exploited.
While it is silly-looking, it is still very effective IMO, and I am concerned of facing a kazan with a macro set up for this.

Permanent fix is to allow disabling emotes during gameplay to prevent spamming of this

I think a simple option is to just add a small icon above his health bar, similar to how when you're in the goalie box the little shield icon to indicate it, kazan could have an open or close umbrella icon, that is different enough to glance at and know

probably emote on cooldown while the stance switch is on cool down. similar to how octavia cant emote when she's on flow state maybe

literally all you'd need to do is add a 2nd indictor for his stance, probably on the hp bar similar to Zen's unique meter. Don't mess with the emotes please, it's fun to see Kazan twirl like that.

You can still tell that he swapped from the VFX and also the slight jitter inbetween the animations when a switch occurs. However this is a valid concern and visual clarity could be better in this case. I will relay this to the team.

You can tell he has swapped but unless you keep track of his swaps (difficult to do while keeping track of everything else), you can’t tell what stance he is in just by looking at him. Glad to hear it’s been acknowledged, I hope a second visual indicator will be added as suggested.
